Create a Splash with your new Bathroom Renovations

March 13th, 2010

Undertaking bathroom renovations can be quite a tedious task, especially if you have only one in the house. For the renovations to go smoothly you need to plan in advance every detail so that there is no unnecessary wastage of time. This article attempts to help you with some cool ideas to add the right elements to your bath space.

Some things to keep in mind when undertaking Bathroom Renovations:

• When deciding upon the colour scheme for the bathroom opt for neutral tones for the floor, walls and on the structural elements and you can use stronger and brighter colours for the accessories. Doing so will give you the liberty to make changes over the years whenever you want.

• Use paler or pastel colours on the ceiling like silver, pale blue, light yellow as this will automatically make it look like the ceiling is much higher.

• If you are short of space then you can opt for wall faucets as this will save you a considerable amount of space.

• Installing tilted mirrors is a better option as it can be used by people of all heights.

• To add an element of uniqueness you can store your linen and bathroom stores in articles of furniture instead of wall cupboards.

• If you are looking for a sophisticated look in the bathroom with rustic tones then you can go for natural materials like slate which is ideal as it is non slippery or even use marble. You can even incorporate wood and have natural fabric blinds on the windows.

• Add a splash of green to your bath area by having a small potted plant. If you have high ceilings then you can have a hanging plant or if not then a small flowering plant next to the sink is a great idea.

• You can reuse older furniture items; an old chest of drawers can be converted into your vanity unit. This adds an element of charm.

• If soft light is what you are looking for then we advise that you install dimmers on your light fixtures. There is nothing better than taking a bath in soft and tawny light. Install dimmers so that you can have bright light when you require it, for instance when you are doing your makeup.< /p>

• You can break up a boring wall by adding some designer tiles on them. You can use them as a border or even install them between large tiles on a mosaic floor. Not only does this give your bathroom a personality but it makes it more fun too.

• Make sure that the bathroom has at least some common elements with the house or the adjoining room. Maintaining a flow throughout the house unifies all the rooms. You can even attempt to create a separate world to which you can escape to but tiny similarities look better than a polar opposite décor.
